    yea i see that just a pinto would be cheaper, but i already had this lanyard so i just wanted to make using it as ddrt a lot more streamline

    after getting my spiderjack mods through the post, i was left with a little sling and thought it might work as a makeshift hitch climber thingy on my lanyard, it fits perfect petweeen the petzl pulley cheeks, not in the way of anything so looking good, i often use my lanyard as a second climbing line, but stuggle to get the crab and snapcrab onto the second ring on my bridge so this is going be great, if it carrys on working, can anyone see any problems?

    they don't change a huge amount, but knowing you don't have to fag around with that velcro again is a great feeling, not ad much chance to use the lever let, pines all week

    I'm slowly converting colleagues onto the spiderjack, always great fun watching some one for the first time descend on it, i think the problem is everyone always body thrusts with it the first few times, and then say its crap, need to learn to thread it into the jack

    yea but a pain in the ass to get clipped on to a swivel

    keep it light in my opinion, tree motion is heavy enough haha, lightweight lanyard, silky, ART friction saver (until it goes in the tree) and chanson bungee, if i could get it any lighter i would, also small caritool, doubles up as a lanyard holder and general slings and strops holder

    looking good, both were pretty easy to attach, but i WD40'd everything first because i have had previous issues with stripping allen key heads on spiderjacks like previously been mentioned

  18. James Atkinson
    thats interesting albert you pleased with your choice then?
  19. James Atkinson
    after a huge amount of reading and researching it seems that the main choice is tachyon, poison ivy to bouncy although looks ace haha, imori general opinion is that its even more bounty and saggy, velocity to thin for people used to 13mm, hmmm
